Need advice on surgery
I have been in contact with Malte Peterson. Actually started last December, when I mailed him my files. I never heard back until June. I sent updated records of neck and back and got their opinion. I started looking into costs and surgery, and received a packet from them today. I was under the impression the surgery would be done bu Dr. Bierstedt at Hattington. Found out it will be at the Elisabeth Krankenhaus hospital and performed by Dr. Illerhaus. In all my reading here, not everything, but a lot, I have never seen anyone mention this. Can anyone offer their 2 cents on this. Thank you for your help
